What OS do you like for digital signage/kiosk/dashboard only?

For instance an RPI that just boots straight to a full screen browser with nothing else. I’ve used Magic Mirror but I want to switch to a web based dashboard instead.

Edit to clarify: Specifically talking about a cheap computer and monitor setup, not a tablet and touch controls won’t matter.

I do exactly this with Armbian and an Orange Pi Zero 3 for a little Home Assistant display.

Autostart a browser in kiosk-mode on boot. Nice and simple.

I also made an image of that SD card if I ever need to set up another.
